Includes full color photos. 168 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. At the heart of this study of the relationship between Greek vases and their decoration - and between the decoration and the function of the vase - is a very well presented catalogue of 43 Greek and Etruscan vases exhibited in the National Archaeological Museum in Madrid. Each entry comprises at least one colour photograph of the vase accompanied by a full description and discussion of the form of the vase, its function, date and historical context, and the design and meaning of its decoration. Arranged chronologically, the vases date from c.850 to the end of the 4th century BC and demonstrate continuities and change in iconography as the influence of Greek potters spread further afield and interacted with local Italian cultures. The catalogue is preceded by five essays which include an introduction to Greek vases by Karl Kilinski II. The other essays discuss: depictions of vases on vases (Jenifer Neils) ; new appraches to Greek vases: repetition, aesthetics and meaning (Ann Steiner) ; myth and reality on Greek vases (Sarah Peirce) ; men, beasts and monsters: pattern and narrative in Etruscan art (P Gregory Warden) . There is also a discussion of the history of the Madrid collection by Paloma Cabrera, the chief curator of the Roman and Greek Antiquities Department.

Dust jacket protected in a mylar cover. *** "This volume, highlighting the development of Greek art from the dawn of the Iron Age to the age of Alexander, features forty-four exceptional ancient Greek, Etruscan, and Italic vases. These painted vessels - monuments to the search by Greek artists for the means of realizing on a small scale, on a two-dimensional surface, accurate renderings of the human form, human spaces, and divine narratives - are masterpieces of the potter's craft and the painter's art. The Greek artists represented - including the Athenians: Andokides, the Berlin Painter, Epiktetos, the Painter of the Madrid Fountain, the Tarquinia Painter, as well as the Baltimore Painter of Magna Graeci - are some of the masters of the medium." - Publisher.

In the spirit of furthering the understanding and appreciation of this ancient civilization, the Meadows Museum is pleased to present From the Temple and the Tomb: Etruscan Treasures from Tuscany, arguably the most comprehensive exhibition of Etruscan art ever undertaken in America. The exhibition was organized by the Meadows Museum in association with the Ministero per i Beni e le Attivita Culturali (Italy), the Soprintendenza per i Beni Archeologici della Toscana (Italy), and the Centro Promozioni e Servizi di Arezzo (Italy). It brings to Dallas more than 400 objects from Tuscan museums and private collections that illustrate aspects of Etruscan life and afterlife over almost a thousand years, from the 9th century to the 3rd and 2nd centuries B.C.E., when they were conquered and assimilated by Rome. Most of the pieces in the exhibition are from the National Museum of Archaeology in Florence, which houses one of the world's finest collections of Etruscan art.
